DONATE A CAR for Literacy!
We’re happy to announce a new way to show your support for the South Grey Bruce Youth Literacy Council!
We’ve registered with Donate A Car Canada, an organization that makes it easy to turn your car, RV, or other vehicle into a charitable donation. Donate A Car Canada will arrange the pick up of your old beater where available or guide you to one of their drop-off locations. It will then be recycled and sold for scrap, or if deemed road-worthy, it will be sent to auction. The Literacy Council collects the proceeds, and you receive a tax receipt for your generosity. Over the past two years we have had three cars donated.
Find out more about the process by reading the Donate A Car Canada FAQ. If you’re ready to donate your vehicle to the South Grey Bruce Literacy Council, you can get started now!
If you don’t have an old vehicle but still would like to help out, we have other ways you can donate or you can consider volunteering.
The Gift of Affordable Office Space
Craig, McDonald, Redden Insurance Brokers Ltd. continues to offer the South Grey Bruce Youth Literacy Council subsidized office space in its 10th Street building. They recently moved us into a new office space which is much larger allowing us to display our resource library and provide two small classrooms for working with students. Talk about good neighbours! Thanks for everything, CMR!

Power Workers Union
The Power Workers’ Union Site Equity Committee has been in place since early 2006 and its purpose is to make cash disbursements of Bruce Site equity funds to community organizations and local causes. To date this fund has distributed over 3 Million dollars within our local communities.
The PWU Bruce Site Equity Committee makes these disbursements on behalf of all 2600 PWU members who work for Bruce Power and it gives us great pleasure to make the following presentation:
The cheque is being presented to the South Grey Bruce Youth Literacy Council by Ted Stiemann who is a PWU member on the Bruce Site on behalf of the Power Workers Union.
